Plan for Intermodal Yard -Trenton Subdivision in N Scale
After a few days of "trial and error" I have decided on a final design for the Intermodal Yard on my layout, The Trenton Subdivision in N scale.
I decided to keep to the basics to create a modest intermodal area capable of both container and trailer operations without taking over the entire layout. I used AnyRail 6 to design the schematic.

As another year comes to a close, I’m looking back on the progress of my layout.
Starting an Intermodal Yard on my Trenton Subdivision in N Scale
Comments/suggestions wanted. Taking advantage of some "free" time over the holidays, I have roughed in the area that I planned for an Intermodal Yard on my layout. I have several trailer units that I have custom built with various Canadian transport companies. I take a photo of the prototype, then crop out everything except the trailer side.
Texas South East RR - an HO scale switching layout
The Texas South East is a fictional freelance HO scale switching layout based on Lance Mindheim's series of books on small switching layouts. I started this layout about 9 years ago. Currently rebuilding in its third location and configuration. Details, photos, etc. forthcoming...
Follow the Cascade Sub on Facebook
With less than a week away from my big push to complete the mainline on my Cascade Sub, I wanted to share some outlets for following along with the progress on this and future projects. Daily updates will be posted on the railroad's new Facebook page: @upcascadesub while a more complete update and projects overviews will continue to be posted on the MRH blog and on the railroad's blogspot page (upcascadesub.blogspot.com).
(Finally) A Layout Update
https://northcountrytrains.wordpress.com/2019/12/04/finally-a-layout-update/
It’s been a long time since I posted a layout update, so here’s a fairly long one.
Gosh it sure has been a while, hasn't it!
My, how time flies! It feels like almost forever ago that I last logged into the MRH site. I didn't get tired of the wonderful MRH community, and I doubt I ever will, with such a wonderful crowd! No, the main contributor was my personal life- I don't wish to go into too many details, but I have spent the past few years struggling with a number of issues- some more temporary, others that will likely remain with me for life.
